For two consecutive days, Lu Wenlong ran away alone, neither going to the big tent to eat, nor hunting with his father. He was already a young boy, and at the age of semi-sensible, he suddenly felt deeply afraid, Mom, maybe this time she left After that, he would not come back. He watched secretly, hoping that his father would go and look for him, but his father was still drinking and hunting, acting like a normal person.
As soon as he got up every morning, he would run to the mangroves and wait, looking eagerly, time and time again, but there was still no sign of his mother. Gradually, he became disappointed, as his mother might never come back again.
The midday sun shone through the gaps between the trees. Lu Wenlong lay on the grass and slowly fell asleep. A man sat down next to him, reached out and touched his hair, and sighed.
He opened his eyes, sat up, and looked at his father without speaking.
"Son, are you still angry with Dad?"
After all, he is a child. When he saw his father's gentle eyes, he asked him anxiously: "Dad, when will mommy come back? Will she come back?"
Jin Wushu looked into the distance. He had sent people to inquire many times, but there was no news. Seeing that the end of summer was coming, the vacation of the Jurchen nobles was coming to an end. The whole team was about to return to their posts, and he had to return to Beijing. Could it be that Hua Rong had just Never to return? But he was still confident. Wang Junhua was not dead yet, so how could Hua Rong just walk away
"Your mother will definitely come back."
"when?"
His heart suddenly trembled. Could it be that Hua Rong encountered some danger
Once this emotion spread, it was unstoppable. Hua Rong had been sneaking around all day, and he didn't know what he was doing in secret. He stood up and immediately took his son's hand: "No, I will go find your mother myself."
Lu Wenlong was full of enthusiasm: "Dad, I will go with you."
"No, you wait at home. Dad will be back soon."
He took his son back, and remembering Hua Rong's instructions, he said to his son: "These days, you will live in a tent, don't go anywhere, and don't eat anything from outside."
Lu Wenlong nodded, feeling a little uneasy in his little heart, and just told his father again and again: "Dad, you must find mother and call her back."
Jin Wushu patted him on the shoulder and looked at the tent. Although the maid had cleaned it fairly well, it had long lost the elegance of the fresh flowers that had been replaced every day, the strong fragrance of sencha and cooking, and the lack of fragrance. The writing with bare hands, the warmth of mending clothes. A house cannot be without a woman. Looking at Lu Wenlong, there is no trace of the fit and handsome headscarf that his mother skillfully dresses up every day.
"Oh, son, we really cannot live without your mother. Don't worry, I will definitely bring her back. This time, I won't let her leave again."
Lu Wenlong was so happy that he almost jumped up, but then he remembered something and said cautiously: "Dad, if mom comes back, please don't quarrel with her again, okay?"
Jin Wushu smiled bitterly: "Okay, no matter what happens to her in the future, my father will let her go. He will never quarrel with her or make her angry. Even Madam Wang and Madam Yelu, my father will not even look at her." Okay, is that okay?”
At night, the bonfire is burning brightly, and the vacationing families sing, dance and feast around the fire as usual.
Wang Junhua looked around and saw that the Fourth Prince was missing for the first time. She had not seen the Fourth Prince all day. She looked around and saw Yelu Guanyin singing a tune from the Liao Dynasty with a concubine, clapping bamboo boards. Guanyin caught her gaze and nodded slightly knowingly.
While everyone was enjoying themselves, the two came to a deserted place.
Wang Junhua spoke first: "Sister, can you see the Fourth Prince today?"
Yelv Guanyin shook her head: "To be honest, the fourth prince has been very cold towards the Nu family recently. In his eyes and heart, he seems to have no such person as the Nu family."
Wang Junhua secretly thought, according to her observation, since Hua Rong left, the fourth prince has been talking about important matters with the Jurchen nobles every day, and rarely calls his concubine to sleep with him.
"Sister is an intimate of the Fourth Prince. Do you think the Fourth Prince is looking for that bitch?"
Wang Junhua was also very suspicious, but suddenly he frowned, a sinister smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, lowered his voice, and almost whispered: "It would be a good thing if the fourth prince can leave for a few days..."
Yelu Guanyin was surprised and happy at the same time, which coincided with Wang Junhua's thoughts. However, she still did not dare to show it. She took a wary look at the lights in the distance and the shadowy soldiers on guard. Recently, the Fourth Prince's tent The surrounding defenses are getting tighter and tighter, and I don’t know why. She is different from Wang Junhua, and she and Hua Rong have not yet reached the point of life and death.
Wang Junhua asked: "Sister, what do you think?"
Sweat dripped from Yelv Guanyin's forehead: "This matter is not trivial. If we are not careful, our lives may not be saved."
Wang Junhua disagreed and gritted his teeth: "Yue Pengju can die, why can't others die?"
Under the night, Yelv Guanyin suddenly felt an invisible murderous aura. Only then did she realize how important this woman was. No wonder she conspired with her husband to kill the famous general Yue Pengju, and at the same time bewitched two powerful men, Zhao Deji and Jin Wushu.
"Those who achieve great things don't stick to trivial matters. Sister, take action when it's time to take action. Otherwise, if that bastard is around, you won't be able to get ahead in one day..."
Yelu Guanyin thought the same way. As soon as she lowered her head, she suddenly retched.
Wang Junhua was very surprised, but he pretended to be surprised: "Ah? Sister, is it possible that you are pregnant?"
Yelu Guanyin shook her head: "No, I'm afraid the Nu family may have been infected with the cold at night..."
Wang Junhua stared at her belly suspiciously. Although it was still flat, he remembered her appearance that night, wearing a gauze dress, which confused the fourth prince. She felt sour, jealous and hateful, and her tone was also a little jealous: " My sister is really lucky. The slave family has always dreamed of giving birth to a son and a half for the fourth prince. What if I never return to Lin'an in this life? Unfortunately, my sister is not lucky enough. Now that she is older, it is even more impossible. …”
Yelv Guanyin naturally understood the implication of her words. Even if she gave birth to a son, she would still be suppressed by Lu Wenlong and would have no chance of success. She thought about it in her mind and finally made up her mind and whispered: "Sister, we are in the same boat now." ,Success or failure lies in one fell swoop.”
Wang Junhua laughed, stretched out his hand and gave her a high-five: "When my sister becomes the princess in the future, don't forget about the slave family."
"Now, that bitch and the fourth prince happen to be away from home, so it's a good time to take action."
"Exactly, we must make it watertight."
Jin Wushu has been gone for three days.
It's a cloudy day.
It's not a cloudy day that's about to rain. There are no accumulated dark clouds in the sky, and there is no sunshine. On the vast grassland, wild flowers are fluttering in the wind, and there is a fresh smell.
A group of children chased two little bear-like animals that suddenly appeared. This kind of little bear is extremely rare on the grassland. It has a short tail, brown fur, and is fat and scary. Lu Wenlong took the lead and chased at the front, but just now When they reached the deep grass ahead, the little bear disappeared and could not be seen at all.
The teenagers gathered around and chopped and pulled out the grass with knives and guns. They were very disappointed. Lu Wenlong jumped off the bay red horse and was also very disappointed. At this time, all the children were tired and hungry, and they didn't bring any dry food, so they had to go back. While eating, a child pulled him and said loudly: "Little prince, there is fresh roast lamb in the big tent..."
The big tent was closer, but Lu Wenlong remembered his mother and father's instructions, shook his head, and insisted on going back to the small tent to eat.
The people preparing the meals were still two old servants selected by Jin Wushu himself, and Wu Qimai was standing by. When he saw Lu Wenlong coming back, he hurriedly said: "Little prince, why did you go out alone? I will accompany you this afternoon. Go hunting…”
Lu Wenlong looked troubled. He felt uncomfortable with a group of friends. If there were adults around, he tried to ask: "Wu Qimai, can you not go?"
Wu Qimai shook his head resolutely: "No, the Fourth Prince has ordered me to accompany you."
"Oh well."
Lu Wenlong was extremely hungry, so he devoured scones, drank sour mare's milk, and drank a small bowl of fermented milk wine. Then he got ready and went along the grassland to continue looking for the two strange little bears.
Although there were more adults, it did not affect the children's interest at all. Wu Qimai stood at a distance, watching the children chasing and chasing in the grass, and said to himself: "These little guys, where are the bears? Are they? Are your eyes dizzy?"
At this time, Lu Wenlong and the children had gone deep into the jungle. He was leading the way. A child next to him was covered in sweat and suddenly said, "Little prince, I'm so thirsty. I forgot to bring water. Give me some water."
Children on the grassland often share water and food with each other. Lu Wenlong handed the kettle to him. The child drank a few big sips and returned the kettle to him. At this time, Lu Wenlong also felt thirsty, took the kettle, and He drank heavily, drinking too fast, and the water kept dripping on the horse's head, down the long horse's face, and on its mouth. The horse stuck out its tongue, as if it was thirsty, and kept dripping. lick.
After a few sips, he suddenly heard a strange sound, which was exactly what a little bear would make. He was overjoyed and shouted: "Where it is... there it is... hurry up..."
He waved his whip and rushed over with his bow and arrow.
In the shallow grass in front, there was indeed a little brown bear. When he realized that he was being chased, his short, fat brown tail swayed in fright as he tried to run away.
"Little Bear is here..."
He shot out an arrow with a "whoosh", and his body suddenly swayed. The horse seemed to be bumping up out of thin air. He could not sit still and his eyes were so blurred that he could not see anything.
"Ah..." He shouted unconsciously.
The children behind him saw that his body was shaking hard, and the horse's hooves were raised high, unable to hold back at all. The children following him were the children who had just shared the water with him. Seeing that he and the horse suddenly went crazy, they were shocked. He was so frightened that he shouted: "Little prince, little prince, what's wrong with you?"
Lu Wenlong raised his bow and hit the horse's back. The horse was in pain and ran away without knowing the direction. The boy was frightened and tightened his horse. He was about to avoid it, but he couldn't. The horse started running like crazy. He rushed toward him, and the two horses collided. The boy was unable to hold on to the reins of the horse, and he fell upside down and fell off the horse's back.
However, the crazy maroon pony continued to wreak havoc, raising its hooves and stamping wildly. Lu Wenlong could not see his little friend lying on the ground covered in blood. He only pulled the reins desperately, trying to stop the horse from running wildly.
The other children also discovered this incident, and when they saw the horse turning around and rushing back, they were all frightened and ran away.
"little Prince… "
"Quick, there's something wrong with the little prince's horse..."
At this time, Wu Qimai also realized that something was wrong. He was frightened and rushed forward to stop the crazy bay-red horse. However, how could he stop it? The horse galloped wildly and reached the open space in front of a pile of gravel.
"little Prince… "
Before he finished speaking, he saw that Lu Wenlong had been thrown up high, and his body spun around before falling to the ground. He fainted with a muffled groan.
Wu Qimai rushed forward and picked up Lu Wenlong, only to see that his head and face were covered with blood. As soon as he let go, his bow and arrow fell to the ground, and he closed his eyes tightly.
He was startled and frightened, and shouted loudly: "Little Prince, Little Prince..."
The children also gathered around one after another, shouting in panic: "Little Prince, Little Prince..."
